Methodology:

About 18,000 employees, including executives, managers and non-managers provided by Research Now were invited to complete these surveys. Respondents, who represented more than 15 industries and employers of all sizes, were asked to complete screening questions to determine their eligibility to complete the surveys. After screening, response rates were 20% for executives, 14% for managers and 26% for executives. The margin of error was plus or minus 3.1%.
